"A map of Boston’s best Irish bars would be incomplete without J.J. Foley’s Cafe. It’s been around for well over a century, and it’s the South End’s best option for solid pub grub — we always like the tots. The bartenders also wear white shirts with ties tucked into the space between the middle buttons, and if you visit more than a few times, they’ll likely remember your order." - Tanya Edwards, Terrence Doyle
